Speaker Pelosi visits Swedish Medical Center

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi toured Swedish Medical Center in Seattle with SEIU Healthcare 1199NW President Diane Sosne on Monday, November 9.  Speaker Pelosi chose Seattle’s Swedish Medical Center for her first public appearance since the House passage of the healthcare reform bill because the hospital and SEIU members are already providing healthcare in many of the same ways that the House Bill proposes.

SEIU Healthcare 1199NW members from Swedish were on hand to hear Speaker Pelosi speak, including Lupe White, Medical Assistant; Don Miller, RN; Clarita Guanlao, Pharmacy Tech; Linda Arkava, RN; and Pam Keeley, RN.
